Otaku Witch

Afterward, through Dorothy's diligent identification, she discovered that a strange power of evolution was brewing in the pot of mutated magic potion.

Therefore, the Homebody Witch boldly speculated that among the two major characteristics of the Witch Clan, the infinite growth of magic power might be a trait bestowed by the primordial magic power, while the characteristic of infinite evolution might have originated from the Divine King himself.

It was no wonder that in history, Denisha was able to bear the primordial magic power that ordinary people could not—as she initially couldn't withstand it either, but ultimately, under the stimulation of the primordial magic power, she evolved a physique adapted to it, which was what later generations called the Witch's Physique.

The Homebody Witch recalled the records of the night when the Divine King rose to power and she uncontrollably slaughtered an entire village—perhaps that uncontrollable process was actually Denisha adapting to the primordial magic power.

The reason she lost control and went on a killing spree could have been because her heart was filled with hatred and anger at the time, plus she couldn't control the primordial magic power bestowed by the world's consciousness, and was instead influenced by the runaway power.

emmm....

Dorothy thought of the historical "herself," feeling it was somewhat unfair for the real Miss Nun and Father Adam to die the way they did.

After all, recently when she had nothing better to do, she had identified a few finished magic potions left by the original owner, and in these, she found two good items.

The magic potion "Unburned Body," although it still suffers from the torment of fierce fire and sustains damage from flames, can keep the user alive until their last breath.

The magic potion "Turtle Breath Potion," which allows the user to slow their breathing and enter a state of apparent death.

Theoretically, if used well, these two potions might have allowed Denisha to fake her death and escape, especially since it was Miss Nun herself who lit the fire. She could have had the opportunity to administer these potions to Denisha.

Unfortunately, Miss Nun had not disclosed her witch identity to Denisha before that, and with so many people watching at the execution site, even if she wanted to administer the potions to Denisha, it would not have been easy to explain their effects.

Then....

there was no 'then' anymore...

A true witch out of control, even without using any spell, simply overpowering with magic power, is a terrifying force that mortals cannot bear. Even if Father Adam, as a hidden power, was competent, it was a matter of one shot or, if not, two shots to resolve it.

Overall, their deaths were somewhat wrongful.

Thus, the Homebody Witch also took this lesson of "awakening unstandardized, ensuing tears a thousandfold," to heart when concocting "Blood of the Hero." She set multiple safeguards for this magic potion to prevent the tragedy of "first strike upon awakening, slaying one's own kin."

The initial process that only activated by a strong protective desire was for this purpose, as only sufficient determination could prevent the user from losing themselves in the "awakening" that followed, and instead of being controlled by unleashed power.

This power of evolution derived from Denisha also required sufficient dedication to drive it; otherwise, with a restless heart and complicated desires, who knows what strange things it might evolve into.

For example, if you're inherently lecherous, filling your mind with such thoughts, it might just evolve you into a hermaphrodite.

A clear enough determination provides this guiding clarity to the power of evolution.

Indeed, Dorothy was still worried that those mortal followers might not know how to clearly gain strength. She directly implanted the memories of the recently improved spells she had modified into the magic potion.

Once the user's determination met the standard, they could activate these memory packs and obtain the spell models most suited to their physique and personality.

The power of evolution would directly use these spell models as blueprints to evolve the user's physique into one that is naturally attuned to these spells, making their use almost instinctive going forward.

emmmm.....

Most of the users were young girls, who would awaken and transform, able to smoothly harness magical spells as if by instinct....

This is definitely Monkey Wine Transformation.

The third alias for "Blood of the Hero" originated from this.

Thus, those little hammer necklaces she had previously distributed containing "Blood of the Hero" not only served to preach to the followers but also acted as a test for them.

The ones who successfully awakened were surely girls filled with a protective belief towards their families. These girls were naturally Dorothy's comrades, and as for those who didn't awaken successfully, well, it didn't matter; it was considered a gift of an amulet to these unfortunate good children.

After all, the necklaces were set with a self-destruct technique, and even if someone bypassed this technique to access the "Blood of the Hero" inside, without the belief fitting as the key, the magic potion was actually more toxic than medicinal. She hoped those guys wouldn't evolve into anything bizarre during the random evolution.

And while Dorothy was both hopeful about the seeds she had sown growing, but also did not want the group of lovely girls to actually face the hardships needed for growth, she suddenly frowned and turned her head towards the direction of the town.

She felt that a necklace's technique had been activated, which also meant that a girl's awakening was underway.

"Well, the chances of not encountering hardships in this cursed place are practically zero."
